I developed incredibly painful tendonitis in my upper wrist and biceps when squatting ...
After following a Starting Strength linear progression program and nearing the end of it, I developed incredibly painful tendonitis in my upper wrist and biceps when squatting and for some time after. I bought these to help alleviate the problem and they really have done the trick. Full disclosure - I also deloaded the weights a little and paid particular attention to my arm position whilst squatting, so it could be a combination of factors. All I can say for sure is that I now squat more than I did and have had no repeat of the pain.

A big help
Bought these to help with the 'tennis elbow' i have been suffering with in my left arm the past few months from using a trolley six days a week on delivery.Found it a bit uncomfortable at first but after a wk or so i've gotten used to wearing it & has helped ease some of the pain when either lifting heavy mail-bags & pushing the trolley.

Sizing is small
Purchased the extra large size for my husband as an elbow support after carefully measuring as instructed. Accordingly he came out at the top end of 'large' and the bottom end of 'extra large' so I purchased extra large. Glad I did as it just fits and no more. He finds the band at either end of the sleeve uncomfortable so I'll probably look at other makes and purchase another elsewhere

A bit tight but it works once it’s on
I went for large size according to the size chart as around my elbow is 15 inches, getting it past my forearms are a struggle as I have to wrestle with it, however once I get it to the right position, it feels super tight and supportive. Great for my push days but I’m not sure if XL would be a better fit, this’ll do for now as even though it’s very tight, it does provide good support. For those reading this review, my forearms are 15 inches and biceps are 17 inches and large is very tight so you will struggle to put it on, however once it’s on, the support is great.

Very supportive
Item arrived on time and contact from the seller was polite and friendly. Following the measurements on the Amazon page I ordered medium sleeves and can confirm that they are quite tight but without being constricting and do not loosen with use and ride down the arm. They provide an excellent amount of support, particularly for the lower forearm/elbow (rather than the bicep). They also wash very well and, being neoprene, dry very quickly.

Great quality, premium feel, bag was a nice touch.
Great quality materials, nice flat stitching and premium feel. The little drawstring bag was an awesome touch and helps keep all my gear clean and tidy. The thickness of the neoprenes is great (just right) and the fit is lovely. Snug; so will help with joint stability, but I got these to protect my elbow pit when doing zercher squats. My elbow measures 12.5” forearm 13” and upper arm 16” and I ordered XL. I used the size chart & mine are a snug but comfortable fit.I will update this review after using consistently to see how long they last, I suspect they’ll hold up fine.

A must have!!!
So i Started Training Power Lifting 14 Months ago, when i first started i fractured a my elbow, which needed steroid treatment and time off. After i recovered i had fear of lifting heavy, but i purchased the Bear Grips Premium weight lifting wrist support wraps and Elbow Sleeves which truly changed my life. I feel so much confidence lifting heavy when using the product that i have no fear. I feel that this product changed my training completely. I been using this the straps and elbow sleves for near 10 months now and its the best purchase i ever made. Quality is fantastic and the reliability is incredible. Really a must have. You should try it and you would fall in love with them.

elasticity
having owned over 6 different makes in my time i am really fond of the bear gip sleeves. they keep the elasticity through my workouts they are not too thick and allow my skin to breath better than the others i tried. i recommend the elbow and the knee sleeves . its nice to have an elbow sleeve that can grip the forearm and the bicep equally.
